2 Gt Crested Grebe
Juv Lesser Black Backed
Zoomed in on ring 237, rest unreadable
A late afternoon gull check at Ogden found it busy with gulls coming and going all the time.
Yesterdays Herring gull was still present and a surprise to see a Common gull drop in for 15 minutes before heading off >W.
A good search through the Black Headeds found another bird with a leg ring but just the single steel left leg ring which was well worn and hardly readable.
Otherwise it was down to the usual sp.
A good time now at Ogden if you,re a gull fancier with several different age and plumages to rake through.
